| majestouch | So i have tried to Burn an iso of Ubuntu 64bit but when i try to boot from it everything is very slow sluggish / laggy takes ages and when it finally boots up the window with the welcome screen that lets you choose if you want to install or try the live disk is Just white and non responsive, this happens when i try to create a live USB as well any ideas ? | 03:52 |
|---|---|---|
| JoseeAntonioR | majestouch: Have you tried with 32 bit? | 03:56 |
| majestouch | No, but wouldn't i waste my other 13gb of ram ? | 03:57 |
| majestouch | i used unetbootin to create the usb should i try to create one manually ? | 03:59 |
| majestouch | and the build in burner in disc utility ( mac os x ) to create the CD | 04:00 |
| stlsaint | you are trying this on a mac computer? | 04:00 |
| majestouch | nop | 04:00 |
| majestouch | my laptop is a macbook pro tho thats why | 04:00 |
| majestouch | dont have any OS on my desktop | 04:01 |
| stlsaint | hrm think macbook may be cause of issue | 04:01 |
| stlsaint | not sure on creating a ubuntu livecd on mac | 04:01 |
| majestouch | well all the other times i did one i only had to burn the .iso | 04:02 |
| stlsaint | majestouch: that should be the same here | 04:03 |
| majestouch | problem is that i dont have any other Machine to try to create another iso from | 04:03 |
| stlsaint | if using a usb maybe dd would work | 04:03 |
| stlsaint | i think it comes down to how the usb is booted off of iirc with the mac | 04:04 |
| stlsaint | not sure though. some quick google searching for it should help. i must depart for now | 04:05 |
| majestouch | okay thanks anws | 04:05 |

| Istas | I'm very new to linux, looking to reduce power use on Asus Eee PC 901. Found how to set power states and how to disable a core. Trying to echo more frequencies to scaling_available_frequencies in sys but get 'write error: Input/output error' even in root after setting permissions to +w. Anyone know why I can't write to it? | 19:55 |
| holstein | i got a 900... im my experience, you'll never really get a lot out of that batter | 19:55 |
| holstein | battery* | 19:55 |
| holstein | i would just use it with the cord, and not sweat it | 19:56 |
| Istas | I'll be on a train for two days with no outlets in the passenger cars, heh. Plus now I'm curious just how low I can get the use. Got the idle runtime with screen on (but dim) over 7 hours | 19:57 |
| holstein | you'll never go 2 days using that machine | 19:59 |
| holstein | this was the kind of thing i did after installing on that hardware http://credentiality2.blogspot.com/2009/11/asus-eee-pc-900-frequency-scaling.html | 19:59 |
| holstein | the 901 is a celeron too, correct? | 19:59 |
| holstein | maybe my hardware case is not as analogous as i am assuming | 19:59 |
| Istas | I'm not expecting two full days. I just want to see how much I can get, I'm kind of an efficiency nut, including with my car's fuel economy heh. Thanks for the link, I shall check that out. And I think the 901 is an Atom 1.6ghz | 20:02 |
| holstein | screen brightness and disabling wifi will be the things you'll notice the most | 20:03 |
| Istas | Yeah, they did indeed increase it a lot. And even the dimmest setting is adequately visible so that's good. Disabling one of the cores made a notable difference as well. | 20:04 |
| Istas | Hm, going by lscpu info, it has one core and two thread, so I guess cpu0 and cpu1 are the threads, not cores. Interesting. | 20:06 |
| holstein | yeah... i dont think those are dual core | 20:07 |
| holstein | i find messing with the CPU a lot just wastes time.. and the screen is on during that time | 20:07 |
| holstein | i might do a bit of scaling, but nothing too extreme.. | 20:08 |
| Istas | *nods* Thanks for your input. | 20:11 |
